Premium contentTOP PICK
Conservative holding with good dividends. Announced increased dividends starting May 31. Stockchase Research editor Michael O'Reilly recently reiterated it as a TOP PICK. Jim Cramer warns to be careful as retail historically doesn't do well as interest rates rise. Social media mentions are up 8% over the past 24h.

Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly We again reiterate this conservative holding offering upside and a defendable dividend - as a TOP PICK. Recently reported earnings matched analyst expectations. We like how it is using cash reserves to aggressively pay down debt and buy back shares. The dividend has grown for 48 consecutive years. Although a little expensive on current PE ranges, it trades at 19x forward earnings, comparable to peers. We continue to recommend a stop at $124, with upside potential towards $167 -- over 25%. Yield 1.61% (Analysts’ price target is $166.95)

DON'T BUY
Walmart vs. Procter & Gamble A difficult comparison. One is a consumer products company and the other is a pure retailer. 56% of Walmart's business is groceries, while P&G deals personal care products. Both are less growthy than in their early days. WM is trading around 22x PE and PG around 27x, both too high for him, based on their fundamentals and growth. Pass on both. Both produce a fair bit of cash. P&F pays a healthy dividend yield which attracts income investors. But there's a disconnect between valuations and growth prospects.

Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly We reiterate WMT - a conservative holding offering upside and a defendable dividend - as a TOP PICK. Recently reported earnings beat analyst expectations. We also like how it is aggressively paying down debt and buying back shares, while still increasing cash reserves. The dividend grows by about 5% each year and has been increased for 47 consecutive years. Although a little expensive on current PE ranges, it trades at 21x forward earnings, compared to peers at 27x. We recommend trailing up the stop to $124 (from $115), with upside potential towards $171 -- over 19%. Yield 1.56% (Analysts’ price target is $170.39)

BUY ON WEAKNESS
Thinks that Walmart is interesting because online platform is strong. However, playing catch up to Amazon.
Walmart having difficult time convincing investors it is better than Amazon or Dollar Tree.
Current valuation doesn't imply reason to buy.
Wait until there is a pullback before buying.

HOLD
Tried and true bricks and mortar. Making inroads into e-commerce, which is crucial to survive. Good performer over the years. Next leg of growth will be e-commerce, which brings a risk that the stores are too big. Fairly valued at 22x earnings. GDP+ grower going forward. Needs to monetize advertising.

BUY
He's long Walmart and Amazon. The latter had ridiculous comps coming out of Covid, but have finally cleared those comps. Amazon is the top megacap tech stock. Walmart has underperformed 40% over one-year. The PE is not demanding. Food inflation actually benefits them. Walmart gets zero credit for its e-commerce. He prefers Walmart over Target in terms of PE and performance.
